SWEDEN.SE - A nation of student unions There are 13 student nations in each of the two cities, and although they bear the names of Swedish regions, students may register at any nation, regardless of their origin. Today, nations differ mainly in the scope of their activities rather than the geographical background of their members, though Swedish students still tend to register with the nation that bears the name of their own region. Good stories from exchange students, however, are plentiful; the results from a simple Google search will show you that for most foreign students in Lund and Uppsala, the time they spent with their nation was one of the absolute highlights of their stay. www.sweden.se /templates/PrinterFriendlySISArticle____6912.asp

The South End Newspaper - NATION/WORLD - Student journalists barred from digging into campus issues But the Rutgers student newspaper, The Daily Targum, refused to run the piece, saying it lacked balance, and that Reiss had failed to overcome her preconceptions in reporting the piece.

Some say that the university, with more than 50,000 students and a large publicly funded bureaucracy — is the perfect laboratory for honing journalistic techniques. www.southend.wayne.edu /modules/news/print.php?storyid=1098
